| so i dont really get on here much...but I constantly read your guys blogs through email...I have found myself less and less on the computer blogging and writing...the main way I keep in touch is email and through facebook.
so i am keeping my account open on here so I can keep in touch with some of those that dont have facebook (clearing of the throat) my little sis...and others.
I am traveling alot now with my new job, which I love...working Revolve conferences on the weekends....and I am loving it.
Keep in touch either email or facebook...And keep on writing on here I love hearing your thoughts and heartsong.

| Its hard to believe that I am back in the good ole USA. The month went too quickly, and I already miss my team and the nationals of Uganda. I am forever changed and will never be the same.
I have tried to put into words what has happened in my heart this month, and its hard. I have tried to write down the thoughts and reflections but the pen doesn't move on the page. I hope to get away some today and just sit and hopefully I can put into words what happened in my heart, and what my eyes saw.
I left my heart in Africa!

| Well dear ones. I am off to Africa, I am going to Uganda for a month. Its hard to believe that it is here already. I go Friday June 6th to Texas for a few days and then on the 11th I am on a plane to Uganda. I am so excited and know that some incredible things are going to pass. We are going to be ministering in the schools teaching True Love Waits and doing a drama. Then we are heading out of the Capital city Kampala to the refugee camps and orphanages to minister to them through VBS and personal evangelism.
I have never been to Africa it is one of the areas that I have yet set foot on, but it was always a dream of mine. And I am blessed to be leading a team to this marvelous country. Please be in prayer for us as we are there, we get back in country July 3rd.
Life, Hope, and Forgiveness for Uganda!

| It has come and gone...the day we celebrate our mothers...I read this blog by John Piper that was from last year when he lost his father. It sums up what I feel right now, as I hope to honor my mother with all that I am.
Thank you, Daddy. Thank you for sixty-one years of faithfulness to me.
I am simply looking into his face now. Thank you. You were a good
father. You never put me down. Discipline, yes. Spankings, yes. But you
never scorned me. You never treated me with contempt. You never spoke
of my future with hopelessness in your voice. You believed God’s hand
was on me. You approved of my ministry. You prayed for me. Everyday.
That may be the biggest change in these new days: Daddy is no longer
praying for me.
I look you in the face and promise you with all my heart: Never will
I forsake your gospel. O how you believed in hell and heaven and Christ
and cross and blood and righteousness and faith and salvation and the
Holy Spirit and the life of holiness and love. I rededicate myself,
Daddy, to serve your great and glorious Lord Jesus with all my heart
and with all my strength. You have not lived in vain. Your life goes on
in thousands. I am glad to be one.
I kissed him on his cold cheek and on his forehead. I love you, Daddy. Thank you. - John Piper

| It seems unreal that you will no longer be there when I walk in the front door to say Hi Honey....Your laugh will be only a memory as I laugh with the family. My mother is gone from this earth and has left us but not empty of hope, yes we may be sad sometimes. Cry for the void that is there, but we remember the goodness in her smile, the warmth in her touch, the gentleness in her way of caring for us, and the love in her eyes for us.
We are left with your love and your goodness, the life you lived will resound in our lifes. We will remember what you did for us so many times not asking for a thank you. How you showed us how to live in Christ, how to love your Lord with all your heart, mind, and soul.
We love you mom...
